Story of the La Capitana Shipwreck of 1654
Dave Horner
46:17
Dave is an author, diver, maritime historian. He was responsible for the discovery of the La Capitana shipwreck. When the ship was built it was the largest vessel ever in the Spanish flotilla and it had the treasure just as large!
David adds:
"I attended the Florida United Numismatists Coin Convention and was impressed with the amount of activity in the treasure coin and artifact market. Florida is where much of the treasure has been found and where the salvors and dealers go to trade. This video is one of the stories of the La Capitana , Jesus de Limpia de Consolacion, a shipwreck off Chanduy, Ecuador. If you want a great numismatic experience with lots of business, buying and selling, educational seminars and camaraderie you might want to attend a FUN Convention!"
